Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 (Compound 21) is an orally active and selective antitumor compound targeting microtubule protein. Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 destabilizes microtubule proteins and inhibits microtubule polymers. Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 arrests the G0/G1 phase in human tumor cells. Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 induces Apoptosis by activating the cascade pathway of caspases. Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 has anti-inflammatory activity, as inhibiting TNF-α and IL-6 in vitro. Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 reduces tumors growth in xenograft mice.

Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 has anti-inflammatory activity, as inhibiting TNF-α and IL-6 in vitro. Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 reduces tumors growth in xenograft mice[1].

IC50 & Target[1]

Caspase 3

 

In Vitro

Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 (48 h) has a selective antiproliferative effect on human leukemia cell K-562 (IC50: 3.27 μM), with IC50s of 82.46 μM (MCF-7), 31.27 μM (MDA-MB-231)[1].
Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 (5 μM, 24 h) induces G0/G1 phase arrest in K562 cells[1].
Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 (4-64 μM) significantly induces early and late apoptosis in K562 leukemia cells, and activates caspase 3 (activation rate: 2.13 %-26.53 %)[1].
Microtubule destabilizer-2 (2.5-10 μM, 60 min) destabilizes microtubule proteins[1].
Microtubule destabilizer-2 (1-10 µg/mL) exhibits moderate anti-inflammatory activity and inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced TNF-α and IL-6 production in primary macrophages[1].

In Vivo

Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 (20-80 mg/kg, p.o., 28 days) has low to moderate anticancer effects in a K562 xenograft mouse model[1].
Microtubule destabilizing agent-2 (5-1000 mg/kg, p.o.) induces minor adverse reactions in Swiss albino mice, but is well tolerated[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
